Well, of course you can guess who my TA is...she probably already saw this! If she's not too busy packing for Mush, that is... ;) I'll email her to make sure she catches this.

Thanks for the welcomes -- it's nice to see you guys. Since I've been so busy with my freelance writing work I've been more or less staying away from the computer unless it's work related. I spend so much time on it already. But I forgot how much I love this place, and all the people in it!

Oh, speaking of my writing, some of you might remember that I had my first short story published in an anthology a few months ago -- well, they asked me and the other authors who are in the book to have a book signing at Borders this Tuesday, and to read a couple pages from our stories. Wow! It's going to feel weird actually signing books for people. I guess I'd better practice signing my "autograph"!

I just realized that I probably should have put this over in the "off topic" board...sheesh, I forgot the rules! That's what I get for staying away for so long. I have a bunch of questions about my cruise -- I'll post those in a different thread.
